Evaluating Nurse Practitioner Students’ Engagement with Isabel: Enhancing Diagnostic Confidence Through AI Integration in Education

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2025 Nov 12;333:88-89. doi: 10.3233/SHTI251582.

ABSTRACT

This study assessed nurse practitioner students’ engagement with Isabel, an AI-based differential diagnosis tool, during training. A survey of 26 students revealed mixed usage, with 44% using it regularly to confirm diagnoses. The tool scored an average of 2.16 for usability. While Isabel boosted diagnostic confidence and accuracy for many, inadequate training limited effectiveness for some. The findings highlight the necessity of structured, hands-on training to successfully integrate AI tools into nursing curricula and enhance digital competency in healthcare education.
